The first ever Diane von Furstenberg accessories shop opened last week at 440 West 14th Street in the gallery space of DVF's headquarters. The shop is in the heart of Manhattan's Meat Packing District, steps away from the High Line. The windows are decorated with DVF's signature fluorescent lips and mannequins wearing iconic wrap dresses. Inside the shop the walls are filled with lipstick lips like wallpaper, pink carpeting and a heart-shaped pouf covered in a black-and white print for anyone who needs to rest their feet.

The shop is selling the pre-fall accessories collection, including the weekend-ready On the Go Tote and 440 Top Handle Satchel. Mini bags such as the quilted Milo and the 440 Mini are also there, along with small leather goods such as iPhone cases, wallets and wristlets. "Accessories are really important to the company and this is the first shop we have dedicated to only accessories," said Diane von Furstenberg. "We thought it was a great way to highlight our favorite styles...and to celebrate summer."
